    Hi all!

     

    I know there are numerous posts regarding pivot point indicators, butI cant find exactly what Im looking for.

    I want to backtest strategies on the European indices (FTSE, DAX) using pivot points. The PRT pivot point indicator is great, but I want pivot lines plotted on the historical data so I can backtest without have to be manually plotting lines for every day.

    So here is my problem: As I only use data from the cash hours (8:00 to 16:30) to calculate pivot data, how do I get the values for the high,low and close for the previous day for those hours?

     

    Thanks in advance,

    Aidan.
